What Is Blackjack?
Arguably one of the most popular casino games, blackjack is a classic casino game that has evolved over the decades, and now there are multiple versions which are played all over the world.
Not many know this, but there are conflicting accounts of how and where blackjack started. Some schools of thought believe that the game began in France in the early 1700s and was known as Vingt-et-Un – the French term for ‘21’, which is the figure needed to get ‘blackjack’ – the winning hand. From there, it is believed that the French took the game to North America, including onto the riverboat casinos. However, there are other beliefs that the game came into existence long before, with some debating that the Romans started a similar version of the game, but with wooden blocks.
Essentially, blackjack is a game played in casinos worldwide, including at JeffBet. As mentioned above, the game aims to get a total of 21 with as few cards as possible while still beating the ‘dealer’. The easiest way to do this is with an Ace (which typically has a value of ‘1’ or ‘11’ and a picture card (Jack, Queen or King which have a value of ‘10’) as well as a ‘10’ of any suit.
Where To Find Blackjack Games At JeffBet
Finding blackjack games here at JeffBet is a simple process and we’ve broken this down into simple steps below!
- If you haven’t signed up already, visit our home page and select ‘Join Now’.
- From there you will be directed to our registration screen where you will be prompted to enter your personal details, including your name, address and a valid form of identification such as a driving licence or passport.
- Register your desired banking method and make a minimum deposit of £10.
- Click on the ‘Casino’ menu header, scroll down to the ‘casino’ section and select ‘more’ which will reveal a separate section that has all of our casino table games.
- You can then scroll through all of our different games, which include multiple versions of blackjack.
- It is also possible for you to type ‘blackjack’ into our search bar at the top, and the results will show just our blackjack games, which makes it more specific to your requirements.
The Basic Rules Of Blackjack
Blackjack is a simple enough game to pick up and understand, the basic rules of blackjack are to reach the total of 21 with as fewer cards as possible.
But, we have your back here, because we’ve explained the basics of the game below in simple steps. One of the great things here at JeffBet, is that all of our Blackjack games have a demo mode available, which means you can play for free first until you become comfortable.
- Find the type of blackjack game you want to play. We have a great range available in our casino section and some of them differ slightly. Below, we have mentioned some of the titles that we have available as well.
- Make a deposit into your JeffBet account based on how much you want to wager.
- You and the dealer are both dealt two cards each to begin with, though one of the dealer’s is face up, with the value showing.
- You then must make the decision to either ‘hit’ or ‘stand’. The former will give you another card and the latter means that you keep your hand as it is. Usually, players ‘stand’ if their total value of cards is 16 or above.
- If your hand exceeds the value of 21, it means that you go ‘bust’ and have lost your bet.
- Now it is the dealer’s turn. The dealer begins by revealing the card that is face down.
- If the total value of the dealer’s hand is 16 or less, they will ‘hit’ to take more cards, however, if their value is 17 or more, they will ‘stand’.
- If you have ‘stood’ and the value of your cards is between 17 and 21 and higher than the dealer’s or the dealer has gone ‘bust’ then you will win your bet.
What Rules Can I Expect In Live Dealer Games?
You can expect the same rules in live dealer blackjack compared to traditional blackjack, the only difference is that in live games, a real-life croupier manages the game, whereas this is done automatically in traditional online blackjack. There are plenty of live dealer blackjack games available at JeffBet, which can be found in the live dealer section, labelled ‘live’ above the ‘casino’ section and, again, if you select ‘more’, this will reveal more options. The concept of the game is essentially the same, however, you will find that you are facing a ‘live dealer’ and this works exactly like being in a land-based casino, playing the game.
This is great if you are more of a fan of personal interaction and you crave more of a real-life experience and there are multiple titles available, based on various themes. Many of our live dealer blackjack titles are available from specialist software provider Evolution. If you are not sure what to expect, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered and have given you a summary below.
- Find the title of the live dealer blackjack game that appeals to you.
- Make a deposit of the amount that you wish to wager.
- Open the live blackjack game, by selecting ‘play’.
- Once you are in the ‘room’, you will come face to face with the live dealer.
- Every live dealer is different in terms of their personality and approach, though ultimately are highly trained and professional.
- It may be that there are other players in the live game as well.
- Like in the casino blackjack game, you and every other player are dealt two cards, while the dealer also gets two, with one face up.
- Depending on the order of players, the dealer goes through each player who will be able to prompt the dealer as to what they want to do.
- This follows the normal rules of the game, in terms of being able to ‘hit’ and ‘stand’, like mentioned above.
- Once you and the other players have played their hands, the dealer then plays theirs, again following the rules we mentioned above.
- Should yourself or any other player have exceeded the total of 21 then this means elimination from that particular game and your bet will be lost.
- Should the dealer you are playing against bust their hand, yourself and/or any other players left in the game will win and get paid out proportionately.
- In the event that the dealer, yourself and every other player is left in the game (the dealer having stood at above 17), the player with the highest total wins.
- A tie between you and the dealer means that this will result in a ‘push’ and you will get your wager back.
When Are The Cards Shuffled?
When playing a game of blackjack here at JeffBet, you will find that the cards are shuffled after each hand.
In blackjack, the cards are usually shuffled after every hand, though this can differ depending on the type of game.
Every blackjack game that is available in JeffBet’s ‘casino’ section has a random number generator (RNG), which every casino and slot game at a licensed casino is required to have.
The good news here for you, is that it means the game is completely fair and the way the cards are ‘shuffled’ – which in this case, means dealt again, are in a completely random nature – this also includes if you play in the demo mode.
If you prefer to play one of our live dealer blackjack games, you will find that this is very much like in real life. However, depending on the title (version of live blackjack game), it can vary how often a dealer will shuffle the cards and the rules of that particular version may require the dealer to choose from a completely different ‘shoe’ (deck of cards), after every game.
All of the live dealer games that we have available at JeffBet are carefully chosen and approved by the UKGC, which means that they adhere to the highest standards and industry legislation.
JeffBet’s Most Popular Blackjack Titles
As we alluded to above, we have a great range of blackjack titles available at JeffBet, that are found in the ‘casino’ section and ‘live’ section, from a wide variety of the industry’s best software providers. Below we’ve given you an overview of each of the different forms including classic, live and multihand, while giving you a gameplay summary of the title’s that you can expect to find in both the casino and live sections at JeffBet.
Royale Blackjack
You will find four editions of the Royale Blackjack game available at JeffBet, from the popular and well-respected software provider, Playtech. Released in 2017, this live blackjack game has amassed a number of fans and is played by many all around the world. Played with eight decks, the dealer is required to stand on ‘17’ and is easy to pick up. Every player is dealt from the same ‘shoe’ of cards, while the dealing is done in the American style. This means that the dealer will get their second card, immediately after you and every other player receives both of theirs.
One of the appealing characteristics about Royale Blackjack, is that you are able to lay side bets – something which is a major selling point for more advanced blackjack players. This effectively allows you to hedge your initial bet. These side bets do not affect the main game, and it becomes more of a poker style element, while you can also bet on the dealer going bust.
Speed Blackjack
Another live title available at JeffBet, and also courtesy of Playtech, is Speed Blackjack. Following similar rules of traditional blackjack, the key differences are that once you and everyone else gets their two cards, you can then decide whether to ‘hit’, ‘double down’ or ‘split’.
This adds an element of competition, because if you are first to decide what you want to do, then you will get your next card delivered first out of everyone else. Due to the nature of the game and the speed at which it is played, it means that you have to think fast so you may want to play traditional blackjack, until you get used to the game if you are a beginner!
Soiree Blackjack VIP Elite
Again, from Playtech and a title that is available here at JeffBet, this version of blackjack is a spin on the classic game, with some interesting additional rules including side bets, while you will find that the dealer needs to get at least a total of 16 and if they reach 17, they have to stand.
You are allowed to double down and split, while typical additional bets can make your experience more exciting, such as same suit blackjack, where you make a bet on someone getting blackjack with the same suit, while you can also place an insurance bet against the dealer hitting blackjack. Meanwhile, you may also get the option to play with multiple hands, depending on the progress that you make in the game!
Unlimited Blackjack
Playtech certainly excels themselves when it comes to blackjack games and this is another title that you can play right here! Again, the rules and gameplay differ slightly, though you will find that ultimately, you need to beat the dealer to 21 without going bust.
Also, the dealer has to draw if their total is 17 or less, which effectively, gives you a good chance of winning, depending on how the hands have been going. Eight decks of cards are typically used in this game, being rotated after every hand, while you can also make a double after a split bet.
Grand Blackjack
Continuing to outdo themselves in the blackjack niche, JeffBet brings you another Playtech title – Grand Blackjack. This game again differs from the others that are available and you will find there are some notable benefits to make your experience more favourable!
For instance, in this version, the dealer always has to stand at 17, unless going bust, while you can also surrender your hand once dealt should the dealer check for blackjack. Getting ‘Blackjack’ in this game means that the payout is 1:1 your stake, while you are also able to double down on any two cards, as well as splitting aces.
Infinite Bet Stacker Blackjack
As much as we love Playtech, we also have a handful of popular blackjack titles from, arguably, the industry leader, Evolution. One of these comes in the form of Infinite Bet Stacker Blackjack, which is an interesting twist on the original format of the game.
So, this means that to begin with, when the dealer presents you with your first two cards – should either of them meet the bonus element value, you will have the monetary value of each further bet that you make added onto the stakes that you make in the main game.
Once this Bet Stacker bonus round finishes, the action returns to the principal game, though potentially with some benefits for you! As such, you may decide to double down and your main bet doubled. This not only includes the value of the main bet you made, but also the total that you got during the bonus round, which can significantly increase your chances of winning! The same also applies if you decide to make a split bet.
Fun Fun 21 Blackjack
Also rolling off the ever expanding production line at Evolution, we bring you Fun Fun 21 Blackjack. Just in case you hadn’t had enough fun!
Again, this has many ingenious features to add even more excitement to the game of blackjack. Perhaps one of the best benefits is that you will always win when you get ‘21’, even if the dealer hits it as well.
The bonus rounds that include ‘Bonus 21’ and ‘Super Bonus 21 Payout’’ means that you can substantially increase your potential winnings, because for certain card combinations you can get up to a 50:1 payout.
Another very interesting element is that all 10s are taken out of the deck for the game, which adds a unique slant and could possibly affect your strategy!
Atlantic City Blackjack Multihand
From another heavyweight of the industry, Microgaming, you can find Atlantic City Blackjack Multihand here at JeffBet – because we love variety!
Should you consider yourself an expert of the game, or indeed, desire a challenge, then this is one for you. A game that includes eight decks of cards which are shuffled after every game, this essentially follows the basic rules of the traditional game.
However, you are allowed to play with multiple hands and, once the dealer checks their hand, if it looks like they have got ‘Blackjack’ you will be able to surrender your hand, for half of the bet you made. Meanwhile, you can choose to split up to four of your hands and doubling down is also allowed on your first two cards.
Classic Blackjack With Noble Diamonds
A version of the game that underlines its innovation and from the boutique software provider, Niche Studios, this really embraces the creative spirit of blackjack.
In this version, six decks of cards are used and the dealer stands if they get a total of ‘17’, which is similar to the classic version of the game. However, unlike others, the dealer only gets one card, you cannot double after splitting a hand, while you are only able to split once.
The Noble Diamonds bonus feature is where it gets interesting, with this allowing you to place a side bet, though this is with a separate wager to the main game. As such, you are primarily betting on numerous combinations of diamonds being dealt and payouts for these vary from as little as 3:1 for any 2 Unsuited Royals, to 2000:1 for 3 King Diamonds, while there are six others in between. So, you could well be looking at a lucrative payout!
What Is The House Edge?
You will find that every casino game has what is called a ‘house edge’ applied to it, which essentially is the degree of mathematical advantage the casino has over the player, based on the mechanics of the particular game.
The house edge of a game is calculated using advanced statistical algorithmic technology and, as a result, some games have a higher house edge and others slightly lower – the latter being that this is favourable to you!
In blackjack, the standard house edge (each version of the game differs), is about 0.5% for the traditional version of the game and this means that for every £100 that you wager, the casino, based on this calculation, would expect to make £0.50.
It is always worth checking the house edge of a game, before committing, because it could mean you are wagering more over a longer period of time to win more against a casino, based on the advantage that it has.
Here at JeffBet, all of our games (including blackjack) have a house edge, though we take responsible gambling very seriously. We certainly recommend that you do not gamble more than you can afford to lose and definitely do not chase your losses. We have a number of responsible gambling resources available that you can view should you feel that you need to.
Tips And Tricks
Of course, everyone looks for little advantages such as tips and tricks when they play blackjack and we certainly don’t blame you!
There are a number of tips and tricks that you can apply during your online blackjack experience and we have gone through a number of these below, that we hope can help make your gameplay.
- Set A Deposit Limit: Before you start playing blackjack, it is always advisable to have a limit in mind in terms of how much that you want to wager. This can really help in terms of discipline as it prevents you chasing any losses that you may incur.
- Set A Time Period: Essentially this is similar to the first one, however, it may also mean that you wager less. We advise playing blackjack for fun, as a hobby or something to wind down, instead of a means of trying to earn, like you would over eight or so hours during a work day. If you’re keen on playing, maybe set aside a time limit that isn’t overly excessive to prevent yourself being online longer than you might wish.
- Play On Demo Mode: Especially if you are new to playing blackjack, we advise you to play in the demo mode (free play) until you feel more comfortable. Because we also have many different versions of the game, it means that the rules can differ. If you aren’t used to this, it may catch you out.
- Stick At 18: In most blackjack games that we have available, the dealer is required to hold at 17 which can give you a major advantage. While you typically win more for getting ‘Blackjack’, sometimes, the wise move might be to play it safe.
- Play A Lower House Edge Game: By choosing a blackjack game with a lower house edge, you are already giving yourself an advantage. All of our blackjack titles vary in terms of house edge, so it is definitely worth looking through them first!
